Next week could draw the biggest crowd of the Nick Saban era to Bryant-Denny Stadium, as this year’s spring game is set to be the most highly-anticipated one since 2008.
For fans of Alabama football, A-Day is a time to be with family, catch up with old friends from college and enjoying a dominant football program.

Per a press release from the University of Alabama athletics department, the festivities for the spring game will include photos with the Orange Bowl Trophy, shopping at the Bama Style Shop, taking in an Alumni Flag Football Game and watching four players from the 2018 team get their hand print and cleat print enshrined at Denny Chimes in the honor of being team captains.
The four players are Damien Harris, Christian Miller, Hale Hentges and Ross Pierschbacher.
With the game starting at 1:00 p.m. CT on April 13, the Walk of Fame ceremony will begin at 11:15 a.m. This will come after the flag football game, which goes from 10:30 to 11:15 a.m.
A-Day is free admission to the public and for a team that wants to return to the College Football Playoff in the fall and win a national championship, having a capacity crowd on hand would mean a lot to the players.
